One Israeli was stabbed in the back and is being treated at Hadassah hospital, Rosenfeld said.

The Palestinian Authority condemned the killing of the Palestinian man and the "injury of dozens."

"These illegal actions of continuing to place heavily armed settlers in the heart of Palestinian neighborhoods result in daily provocations and violence against defenseless and unarmed Palestinians and paves the way for such crimes to continue," Palestinian Authority spokesman Ghassan Khatib said in a written statement.

He named the dead man as Samer Sarhan.

The Palestinian was killed early Wednesday morning by a security guard, a spokesman for Israeli police said.

One of the guards was driving in the east Jerusalem neighborhood of Silwan when dozens of Palestinian residents began stoning the car, police said.
